Out of curiosity, what’s your PBH and saddle height? I’m at around 87 but
run my saddle around 76, and am wondering if I could fit a 60cm QB with the
tire size maxed out.

I recently purchased and installed a pair of their "touring" tubes in my

Hi -
Today walking through REI, I saw an orange plastic-looking tube called
"Tubolito". I was shocked when I saw the price: $37.95. The Tubolito
website (http:tubolito.com) claims they are lighter and stronger than other
tubes.
Personally, I'm not inclined to spend $38 on a tube unless it's th

you have one!

Is the goal to supply under-served populations with tools and equipment

Always a tricky thing. The bike charity co-op in NYC that I dropped parts

Over the years I have amassed a sizable stash of really nice components
that I no longer need - Paul brakes and levers, Nitto stems and handlebars,
XTR M900 wheelset, SON dynohub, etc. It's all valuable on the open market,
but Riv's BRP has got me thinking about how best to donate it for maximal

Hi all,
I'm on the hunt for a 26" wheeled 56cm Atlantis (could also do a newer 55
or so) or a 60cm Cheviot. I'd prefer complete (and I'm comfortable changing
out parts to suit my preferences) but would entertain frame/fork combos as
well. Lemme know whatcha got and whatcha want.

Oh my yes Paul ! It was my error one of those deals where the hands

I like his easy going manner and such.

Steven, the list members seem to have a hard time following instructions.
Don't build your own wheels.
I have built two sets of wheels using the bikes as truing stands with blue
masking tape across the seat stays/fork as a guide. Make sharpie marks on
the tape as needed, and flip the wheels. I
I agree with Eamon, Coleman has shifted the green a bit. I am willing to
cover shipping the shipping on either of these bikes at the prices listed
above, and open to reasonable offers.

For a couple of weeks I had used Avid single digit 7 v-brakes, with
650bx2.15 Almotion tires. Felt like there was just enough room for
fenders. Hence these brakes *won't* be an option for those wider tires you
want to use.
Now I'm running Avid Shorty Ultimate cantis.
